[QUOTE="tieguy, post: 756475, member: 1912"] cove's post is reminiscent of another point. Where someone says they did not get help from united way when they asked for it. first off united way is not an insurance plan. You don't pay two dollars a week to get unlimited help when you need it. United way is a pipeline that promotes funding to those agencies helping your community. Its not a charity in itself. Its like the pipes that feed water to your house. Now you could decide to turn the water off and get the water directly from the river when you need it. But your walking or driving to the river everytime you need it would not be as efficent as turning that tap. That what united way does is make it easy for all of us to contribute to fixing or helping issues in our community. The als chapters I give to would only get a fraction of the funding they currently work with if not for UW beating the bush's for them. it makes it so easy for me to give through payroll deduction. i don't have to buy no stamps, write no checks dont have to drive anywhere to make my donations. I set it up once a year and I'm done with it. [/QUOTE]
